Access to accurate spatio-temporal groundwater level data is crucial for sustainable water management in Chile. Despite this importance, a lack of unified, quality-controlled datasets have hindered large-scale groundwater studies. Our objective was to establish a comprehensive, reliable nationwide groundwater dataset. We curated over 120,000 records from 640 wells, spanning 1970-2021, provided by the General Water Resources Directorate. One notable enhancement to our dataset is the incorporation of elevation data. This addition allows for a more comprehensive estimation of groundwater elevation.
